It’s not unusual for downtown Minneapolis streets to close temporarily for road construction or to accommodate large crowds gathering at sporting events. The city has now added zombies to the list of reasons for road closures.

On Saturday, Oct. 11, the city is closing several streets to make room for a zombie pub crawl block party in the Warehouse District. The following streets and adjacent sidewalks will be closed between 8 a.m. and midnight.
